we haven't been talking about the son-in-law of osama bin laden recently. here we are talking about him in court today. what evidence might come up at the trial? >> reporter: one of the things we learned today is that apparently the prosecution is going to introduce a 22-page statement, remarks that suleiman abu ghaith made to prosecutors after he was taken into kufpltd it does appear that much of the case, much much the case against this accused terrorist will be his own words and pictures that al-qaida recorded. the judge even quoted some of the material that is in the indictment. at one point suleiman abu ghaith is recorded as saying, speaking about the united states and i quote "the storms shall not stop especially the airplane storms." at this hour he was in a federal courthouse, he's going to be transported here to a detention facility. there is no bail. and ironically as he talks about these airplane storms over new york, he is here on a snowy day and this in fact the only storm that new york has had to contend with thanks to the great efforts of law
